2010, Maybe Then


This will serve as the "Pass In Review" for 2009.

I'm pretty sure 2009 will go down as one of the worst years of the 21st century, right on top of 2008.  We've seen the worst job market in at least a quarter century, the most liberal administration since the 1930s, probably the worst Georgia team since Ray Goff despite 8 wins, Michael Jackson's death, and swine flu.  

Top stories:  Washington now owns the car companies, the insurance industry, and the banks.  Next target:  the healthcare sector.  Apparently winning the White House isn't enough when you want to be president of everything.   

Movies:  all terrible.  Especially the Hangover, which was by far the worst "comedy" since Borat.   Haha yea, funny! Cussing and drug references and gross stuff and cussing!  Yea!  Funny!  Take your five-year old with you!

Weddings:  Congrats to Snuffy, Sabogal, Jue, and all others who've signed the one-hole contract.  No turnin' back boys.  Actually there is -- it's called divorce and some of you will probably do it.

Music: Kings of Leon, Taylor Swift, Lady Gaga.

Girls of the year:  Taylor Swift and...that's it.  No others.

Moral of the story?  Apparently things have to get really bad before they start getting better.  And that's why we're optimistic about this year.  Predictions for 2010:  BC will make the playoffs in football, the Republicans will pick up 20-30 seats in the House of Representatives, and...BC will make the playoffs in football.

Just so we're clear--are you saying that Lady Gaga was one of the highlights of 2009? If not, I have some recommendations for you.

Patrick said...

Recommend away, Lady MacKenzie.

MacKenzie said...

Have you watched the video for "Bad Romance?" You should. I would also recommend these songs off of The Fame Monster: Monster, Dance in the Dark, Telephone, So Happy I Could Die.

HANK said...

No, I have not.

I really like the Bad Romance video but the bathtub hands frighten me a little bit.

Yeah, she is a little weird and...anime-like in the bathtub. But other than that, I like the video!
